A grievance has been filed against lyricist Javed Akhtar for his remarks on the FIRs registered against suspended AAP corporator Tahir Hussain through the Delhi riots. The grievance was lodged on the Bihar courtroom on Wednesday by Amit Kumar, a neighborhood advocate.

Reportedly, the complainant alleged that Akhtar’s remarks had been seditious and promoted non secular hatred. On February 27, Javed Akhtar who’s vocal about his opinion took to Twitter and wrote, “So many killed, so many injured, so many homes burned, so many outlets looted so many individuals turned destitute however police has sealed just one home and searching for his proprietor. Incidentally, his title is Tahir. Hats off to the consistency of the Delhi police.”

So many killed , so many injured , so many home burned , so many outlets looted so many individuals turned destitutes however police has sealed just one home and searching for his proprietor . Incidentally his title is Tahir . Hats off to the consistency of the Delhi police .

In one other tweet responding to a consumer, Javed clarified that he’s not asking ‘why Tahir however why ONLY Tahir’. “So handy to misconceive me. I’m not asking why Tahir I’m asking why ONLY Tahir. Why not even an FIR against those that have brazenly threatened violence within the presence of the police. Even the HC has reservations concerning the position police has performed on this orgy of violence,” he wrote.
